Biote® Hormone Pellet Therapy
Certified Platinum Biote pellet therapy — customized bioidentical hormone treatment for men and women.
Biote's method of pellet therapy has helped hundreds of thousands of men and women across the country achieve better hormone balance. As a Certified Platinum Biote Provider, Littleton Wellness Center is a premier source for pellet therapy in the Littleton community. Bioidentical hormone pellets, containing bioidentical testosterone or estrogen, are placed just under the skin, releasing a steady stream of hormones as your body needs them. We offer both testosterone pellets, most often used by men, and estrogen pellets, most often used by women, so each patient gets the specific hormone support their body needs.
The pellets are inserted in a simple in-office procedure, typically in the upper buttock, and begin working within seven to ten days. From there, your body accesses hormones from the pellet based on your own metabolism and activity level, so your dosing adjusts naturally rather than through a fixed daily schedule. Every treatment plan is customized to your unique physiology, giving you a more personalized path toward hormone balance than standard replacement options.
Hormone Optimization with Biote
The primary goal of Biote is to help balance hormones through bioidentical hormone replacement therapy using pellets. Hormone balance is crucial to leading a healthier and more fulfilling life. That's why the mission of Biote is to help people live better, longer.*
What Is the Goal of Hormone Optimization Therapy?
Bioidentical hormone replacement therapy (BHRT) may offer relief for many common and debilitating symptoms that medical providers often overlook. Some of these symptoms include:
- Exhaustion*
- Stress*
- Foggy thinking*
- Weight gain*
- Sleep disturbances*
- And so much more*
Often, people with symptoms like these are suffering from hormonal imbalance. These ailments may be managed by getting to the root cause of these complex conditions and returning the patient to a state of hormonal balance. BHRT may be a simple method for correcting these complex issues through hormone optimization *
What Is Bioidentical Hormone Replacement Pellet Therapy?
Bioidentical hormone replacement pellet therapy is a personalized approach to hormone replacement. It allows a patient's body to absorb the right level of hormones at the right time using a delivery method the body can process efficiently.
Pellets are small capsules (about the size of a grain of rice) that contain bioidentical hormones like testosterone or estrogen. A bioidentical hormone is the exact molecular structure of hormones the body produces naturally.
They are inserted under the skin, where hormones enter the bloodstream as they dissolve over several months. Our studies show that patients may see the effects of hormone optimization up to four weeks after a pellet insertion. Everyone is unique and some people may feel the effects immediately, while others may take up to two or more pellet insertions before they feel full effects.
Hormones delivered by pellet therapy bypass the liver, do not affect clotting factors, do not increase the risk of thrombosis, and avoid the fluctuations of hormone levels some patients may experience.* Biote bioidentical hormone pellets are made from soy or the yam plant to create estradiol and/or testosterone molecules, unlike synthetic hormones, which are made from animal parts or urine and have a different molecular structure than what the body produces.
What Can a Patient Expect From BHRT?
As each patient’s symptoms are unique, so is each patient’s path to hormone optimization. Some patients report some relief in as soon as four weeks, but full hormone optimization may take up to six months. Many report feeling more benefits after the second insertion. The Biote Method of hormone optimization therapy will be customized to balance each patient’s hormones and fit their specific needs.

Testosterone Pellets
Low testosterone can leave men dealing with fatigue, reduced muscle mass, low libido, and brain fog that standard treatments don't always fully address. Testosterone pellets deliver a steady, consistent dose that adjusts naturally with your body's own metabolism and activity level.
Estrogen Pellets
Declining estrogen during perimenopause and menopause can bring hot flashes, mood changes, and sleep disruption that affect daily life. Estrogen pellets provide steady, long-acting hormone support without the daily routine of pills or creams.
